The Big Fat Tip® is my passion project. When I was in my early 20's, I waited tables at Applebees and bartended at a fancy French restaurant, Chez Pierre, in Tallahassee, Florida. I promised myself that "one day, when I made it, I would go around handing out big fat tips." I got tired of waiting for that kind of wild success, so I went ahead without it by.

Directly managed seventeen supervisors and 170 associates in a fast-paced, ever-changing call center environment during a period of rocket fuel-injected growth for GEICO.

After being rated as one of the top supervisors in the department, I rotated into the role of Service Trainer. I was asked to take on this critical function on a Friday afternoon, with a new class starting that Monday. I reviewed the training manual and discovered it was somewhat outdated. So I wrote a new chapter each evening after work and created tests.

I volunteered for assorted projects - any that I could get my hands on and many that I created on my own. My favorite project was working on a new version of our "A Call," which aimed to increase our rapport over the phone in the most efficient manner possible. I went to college at night and often returned to the office to continue working on these.

Call center jobs are demanding. The work is repetitive, the evaluation metrics are out of reach, and the customers often treat you like dirt. Every minute of your workday is measured – even bathroom breaks are rigidly monitored. As an employee, you feel like merely a number on someone else's spreadsheet. Naturally, I was dissatisfied with the position. So.
